Amsterdam, Nederland
De eigenaar is bekend. Of het vandaag te zien is, zegt het museum niet, en gissen hebben wij niet geleerd.
When the historical Buddha passed away, only his body died. He himself entered a state of complete enlightenment (nirvana).
This is celebrated in Japan on the fifteenth day of the second month. On that day, the service focuses on a painting like this, in
which the Buddha’s body is surrounded by numerous creatures mourning their teacher’s departure.
